[Wxlua-users] wxlua 2.6.2 memory leak

[Adam K. <ada...@gm...>]

Hello all, first post so be gentle with me :)

I have used the 2.6.2 binary for Windows for 2 weeks now. Unfortunately the
wxluaedit application leaks memory something awful, at least 2kb per second.
After 30 minutes the applikation is unusable, having taken more than 50Mb
and using +90% CPU time regardless of what is done (just blinking the
cursor). Closing the applikation then takes more than 1 hour, but killing
the process works.
I saw someone else on the list had the same problem, and the suggested fix
was to get the latest nightly source and build it. I have tried and failed
miserably, using MSVC++ 6.0. More than half a day has been wasted trying to
get it all running. In the end I failed to link wxluaedit. I don't even know
for sure if the latest nightly build is actually possible to build with MSVC
6.0?

Quick fix: could someone please share a pre-built binary of the latest
build? Wxluaedit is what I need the most.

Long-term fix: nightly/weekly binary builds on the download side would be
very nice. I read the history-file with 2.6.3 notations and wept as I wanted
so many of the fixes.

My current hack-solution is to use the editor for 30 minutes, kill it and
repeat. Not very impressive.

Praise: I REALLY like LUA, and wxlua is a perfect fit for my current needs.
wxluaedit, when working, is rather nice to use. I have regained some
programming-lust.

Thanks,
